Some of the best most useful skills I've learned I've learned making side projects using technology that I wouldn't dare try to introduce at work. (too new / bleeding edge / untested) With that said, I don't make any of those projects public since they embarrass me. No unit tests typically, poor documentation, etc. With that said as a hiring manager I would never penalize someone for not having open source projects.
